How Old

[flagbabyds]

I was just wondering when everyone was diagnosed.

[flagbabyds]

i think it is interesting because everyone is diagnosed at different times and when i did my science fair most people were diagnosed inbetween 20-40 and i want to know when everyone else was dx

[Guest jhmom]

I answered for me but also wanted to let you know that my daughter was dx when she was 8 (it wouldn't let me vote twice).

Hi, I'm new to the forum. My name is Emily, and I'm almost a sophmore in college. I'm from Kansas, but am going to school in Rexburg, Idaho. I was diagnosed a week or two into my senior year of high school, so I was 17. I turn 19 in two days, so it's been almost 2 years since I found out I had Celiac.

Hi, Emily! I'm almost 40, just diagnosed, and living in Southeast Kansas. What part of Kansas are you from?

[byuiemily]

I'm from Topeka, born and raised there. Where in Kansas are you at?

[plantime]

Between Pittsburg and Columbus. I love this state!

[Guest DawterAod]

I haven't actually been diagnosed with celiac..

But i was diagnosed with a gluten intolerance a year ago, so i would've been 16.

Hey, she gave me older than teen options so I took it! I'm 44, back in college full-time (masters) ; diagnosed at 42. hindsight shows it's been active most of my life (enameless teeth!)

[Carriefaith]

I was officially diagnosed around my 23rd birthday. I think it was several days before my birthday!

[psawyer]

This is a really old thread, recently revived. I wasn't a teen even when it was started. My official diagnosis was given to me two days after my 46th birthday. I'm 52 now. So, at the moment: I am 15 with 37 years of experience. My first post here, in 2004, was also in response to a poll by Molly.

[Viola 1]

I was 42 when diagnosed, I'm 60 now ... that's 15 with 45 years of experience I love that Peter.

[Kaycee]

Me diagnosed at 48, and am now nearly 50

Cathy

[quantumsugar]

Ha, I'm a dork. Diagnosed at 20 (not 22)... I'm 22, which gives me two whole years experience (in a few more months).

[jerseyangel]

Wow--this is an old thread!

I was diagnosed in June of 2005 at age 49. I had symptoms from about the age of 30.

Shirley and Peter--I'm not sure, what does that make me?

No one ever gets passed 49

Now lets see ... that would be 15 with 35 years experience

[Phyllis28]

I was diagnosed in the spring of 1978 at 20.75 years. Yep, that's almost 29 years.
